“Do not imagine that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I came not to send peace, but a sword.” 

Pasolini’s transcendent truth is a deeply welcome reminder that man’s creation of the religious myth will help us not to be crushed by the monstrousness of the universe.

PS. Speaking of existential despair, I had to look at so many AI generated images of people’s animals as humans this past week. A real balm for the soul to look deep into the human face, young and old, twink Jesus and bear Judas.

All my life I’ve heard so much about oiled-up sax man in The Lost Boys, and somehow not a FUCKING PEEP about Bill Pullman going gonzo on that TENOR?!

My favourite moment in Mulholland Drive is at the tail end of ‘I’ve Told Every Little Star.’ There’s this stare held between Betty and Adam on the film set, where the look shared contains such wishing and hope, romance and longing, this magic moment of possibility that blooms and withers. 

I thought of this moment as a jumping off point for Inland Empire. Taking that glittery world of possibility and watching it deteriorate into a waking nightmare. 

Pretty damn cool how Lynch’s filmography is so symbiotic, conversing with one another in the shared language of dreams and nightmares.

If you can keep your head when all about you   
    Are losing theirs and whatever whatever

Helpful to approach with:

a) an open heart
b) a long-standing affection for Willem Dafoe
c) an appreciation for Performance (1970)
d) an awareness of the massive crushing grief
e) a little 🍃

You know that Baldwin quote about friendship being the mirroring of each other’s light? This feels like it’s ugliest conclusion. What if we mirror each other’s suffocating loneliness?

I’m very fond of you, butch Challengers

“No one ever likes the right person”

If you watch this movie early enough in life, a little Bret Easton Ellis voice will take root in your head and you will be unable to form functioning human relationships. Six Different Ways needle drop still goes crazy.

Sometimes the mark of a good horror film is inducing a state of dread that is so visceral and destructive of Self that you must ask if you were ever alive in the first place.

Sometimes the mark of a good musical is inducing a state of joy that is so visceral and destructive of Self that you are once again young and sweet, only 17.

Like American Graffiti, I 100% know I’ll vibe with this more upon rewatch…but my steadfast devotion to Dazed and Confused muddled the experience…..I KNOW! Films are not in competition with each other! AND YET!!!!!!
